Compassion.........

Compassion.........

Even amidst a huge crowd Abraham Lincoln the President of USA, spotted and approached a poor young man. When he gestured him to spell out his plea, he presented his case, "President, I was formerly a drummer in the army. A terrible disease attacked me and I am the under medication. There is no one to help me" President then enquired whether his parents were alive and found that he was an orphan. The heart of Abraham Lincoln was moved with compassion and immediately he gave a chit to the Army Captain to help that young man. The Christ-like compassion flowed from the heart of Abraham Lincoln. Today, let us examine whether we have this virtue of Christ-like compassion in us. "How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him" (Acts 10:38).
